Hey guys. I bought this bagarius from Pedro @ aquascape nearly 2 months and I'm still not sure what it is. He got it in as a Bagariua bagarius, but later determined that he is a 100% sure its a Bagarius yarelli. The fish is about 10" long without its 2.5" streamers. Since I cant decide what it is I figured I let you guys tell me what you think it is. Hope you guys enjoy the pics.

Thanks. So we have one for yarelli. Anyone else care to comment?
 
It looks like a Yarelli to me as well. Definately not a B. Suchus and the growth rate definately rules out B. bagarius.
